"The Son of Master kira survived Master?.."spoke a dark voice that belonged to a man in a black coat. He was walking alongside another figure in black robes The figures were walking through a world known as Coruscant, A world which was one giant city with hover cars and flying ships.

"Indeed my apprentice, He is beyond our reach at the moment but he will be coming soon and when he does, He will be ours for the taking and the great light will be mine" spoke his master.

"Yes, Lord Sidious" said the figure looking at his master.

/Traverse Town/

Sora was quick to duck as another fireball came at him before Leon came right at him with his Gunblade raised. Sora quickly blocked his strike with the Kingdom Key keyblade before he was quick to parry another attack from the swordsman before he pointed his keyblade in front of him, "Ragnarok!"

light gathered at the tip of the keyblade before firing off into many projectiles towards Leon who blocked the shotlock with his gunblade. Sora took a deep breath after he launched that powerful shotlock before Leon went over to him. "Cloud has trained you well Sora." said Leon.

"Yeah my Dad taught me to be prepared for anything and he taught me, Riku and Kairi at a young age to be prepared for anything." said Sora looking at Riku and Kairi who were practicing magic at some targets. "Fira!" Kairi shouted firing a medium sized fireball towards the target, completely destroying it.

"Water!" Riku said firing a water spell doused the fire that Kairi created. Lea with his arms crossed looked at his friends very impressed they were catching on with their training real quick. He looks to see Merlin looking at him. "Master Merlin?" asked Lea. Everyone stopped their training to look at the wizard who had been training them for the last two weeks since their arrival to Traverse Town. Donald and Merlin taught them how to control magic. So far, Sora, Roxas, Xion and Namine have learned to master Fire, Water, Blizzard, Cure and Thunder while Kairi was already on Tier 2 spells. When she was told that she was a princess of heart. She always knew she had a feeling she was special because animals were always nice to her, even the local sharks in the beach back at the islands were nice to her. Kairi, Xion and Namine got to know their uncle Ansem and he would tell them stories of their grandmother before the attack on their world.

"The dark forces are on the move...Master Ansem wants to see you all at once." said group dismissed their weapons before heading in the manor and to the room which had a map of the Ocean Between. Ansem the Wise along with Leon was silently speaking when the group approached. "Ah excellent, you here, we have reports of two worlds under the threat of darkness. Wonderland and Olympus." said Ansem.

"Olympus...That's where Dad is," said Roxas. Selena and Solaira looked worried for their father.

"Don;t worry , your Father can handle himself. he's not a top member of SOLDIER for nothing and he's got uncle Zack watching him" said Tifa reassuring the twins.

"looks like we're heading out for our quest..." said Donald. The team went into the first district with Ansem, Leon, Yuffie and the disney castle residents. Pluto was beside Kairi as he had taken a liking to her.

"Make sure you're prepared for the journey ahead of you," Leon said sternly, his arms folded over his chest as he looked at the gang. "We don't know how far the Heartless have spread."

"You guys should check out the shops they got here. They have some neat stuff" said Yuffie as she handed Sora a pouch full of money. Sora took it with both hands and peered inside. The bag was filled with small golden orbs, ranging in size, each of them labeled with numbers that ranged from one to twenty. Sora could only assume that it was money of some kind. He looked up at Aerith, confused. She merely smiled warmly. "Spend it as you see fit."

He was right. It was money. Riku and the others were given money as well from Yuffie.

"Thanks guys'' said Sora. Yuffie and Aerith nodded to them before they stepped back. The group then decided to get supplies for their upcoming journey. Lea, Xion, Riku and Roxas went to the store to buy food and water. Sora and Kairi decided to take a look at the pet store that was nearby since Kairi wanted to look at the kittens. As soon as they entered the store, Kairi's eyes fell in love with the kittens.

Kairi was too busy snuggling a nearby kitten with white fur and blue eyes , "Awwwwwww... You're so cute."

"Mew" said the kitten purring in her arms.

Sora smiled at her seeing her so happy when he heard Riku coming right behind him. "Hey were ready to go"

"We're coming," said Sora as Riku turned his head back to the others. Sora made to leave only to realize Kairi wasn't following him, she was still snuggling the kitten. "Kairi, we've gotta go."

"Oh...okay. Can we take the kitten too?" Kairi asked. Sora looked at her with surprise, "Kairi, do you think that's the best idea at the moment? We are on a dangerous mission."

"Please..." Kairi frowned and gave Sora the puppy dog eyes. Sora hated seeing Kairi like this. He signed..

Back with the others. They were waiting on Sora and Kairi to join them when they came out of the pet store. They noticed Kairi was holding a sleeping kitten on her arms. "What kept you two?" asked Lea with a smirk.

We needed to do a little shopping." Sora replied. Kairi smiled as she held onto the sleeping kitten.

"So Cute!" Selphie, Xion and Namine looking at the kitten in her arms. "So what are you going to name her then Kairi?" asked Goofy.

Kairi began to think of a name for her kitten before she said. "Lucy"

Lucy purred in her arms, liking her new name as the group was all holding boxes and bags full of food, Water, and potions. Donald then said "The Gummi ship is outside that gate." He gestured toward a large doorway standing not twenty feet behind them.

Sora and them turned to face Donald, Max and Goofy slowly. "The what?"

"That's our ship," Donald said with a firm nod. "We travel to different worlds on the Gummi ship."

Max grinned widely. "Wait 'til you guys see it!"

"Okay, then," Sora said, a smile growing across his face. "Let's get going! I can't wait to see this ship of yours!"

The others were excited to see this Gummi ship for themselves. Donald nodded as he led them towards the door and opened it to reveal a dark forest beyond Traverse town. There were no lights on this side of the door, except for two that hung on the walls near the doorway. Not much could be seen through the darkness. The lights could only manage to illuminate a ten-foot radius near the doorway. Here, the ground was not paved the way it was in the town. It was left as rocks and pebbles that crunched and ground together underneath their footsteps. There seemed to be some trees and other foliage near the doorway, but other than what little could be seen beneath the ever night sky and the two lights on the wall, there was only darkness beyond.

One thing that definitely could be seen, even under the dim lights, was Donald and Goofy's ship. It was huge to the Vikings and other was colored a glossy red, with a yellow stripe going all the way around the nose of the ship. It had large white wings on either side with smaller ones that probably served as rudders placed above it. A small set of cannons was stuck to the bottom of the ship, though what that could be for was defenses. Sora and them could see straight into the cockpit, as it was covered by a large glass dome.

"Whoa" said the twins looking at the ship holding Arieth's hands. they would be remaining here with her, Selphie, Tidus, Wakka and Lulu to aid the Resistance.

Goofy looked at the gang before he asked. "What do you fella's think about the ship?"

"It's Awesome!" exclaimed Sora.

"It looks cool!, does it really fly?" Roxas asked.

"It sure does." said Max with a smile.

"Yeah," Goofy added as moved toward the ship. "If ya like the outside of it, wait 'til ya see the inside!"

An entrance began to appear. Bright white light seeped through newly opened cracks on the ship's surface, outlining the doorway. The outlined shape then popped out of the surface of the ship and began to lower toward the ground, creating a sort of ramp into the ship. Air rushed into the interior of the ship as the door opened, and light exploded from inside the ship. Sora and them had to shield their eyes until the light dimmed slightly.

The duck and dog turned to each other, grinned and began to pull Sora into the ship and the others followed suit behind. As soon as their eyes had adjusted to the brighter light and were able to see inside, their eyes went even wider in wonder and their jaws dropped visibly.

"Whoa!" they said.

They never seen anything quite like it before. It was bigger on the inside than it looked from the outside, and it seemed to have a lot more room than was probably necessary. There were three mechanical white-gloved hands attached to the ceiling that were moving everywhere. Giant tanks, engines and gauges of various unknown materials were lined up on two of the walls. The entire room hummed with the sound of the engines revving up. There was a small cupboard on one side near the doorway, and whatever walls were available had at least two pictures, posters, or signs.

The far side of the room seemed to be split into two parts. One part of the room was filled with various furniture; couches, tables, and even two twin beds. The catch there was, they were much too small for anyone to use. It certainly made the gang wonder who could use them, then. On the other side of the room, opposite of the small furniture, was one long couch that seemed perfect for lounging or napping on and a small box which was called a refrigerator and was used to store food and water to keep them cool And right in between the two parts was a ladder leading upwards. On the wall just behind the ladder was a sign that read "cockpit" with an arrow pointing up.

Goofy laughed to himself lightly. "Roomy, isn't it?"

"Welcome aboard the Gummi ship Kids'' said Donald. The gang then went to explore the ship as Riku, Lea and Roxas began loading up the fridge and cabinets with their supplies. Donald pulled out a small remote and clicked a button. the ship began to expand a bit as it was a little bigger on the outside. "There i expanded the ship a bit to make room for anyone else that might join us on our quest." said Donald. Although he was told that the world order must be kept. Leon told them to keep an eye out for potential recruits for their cause to stop Xehanort and Maleficent. Prince Phillip and Beast had decided to join them.

"Oh what does this do?" asked Roxas, reaching for something when he heard a small voice. ""TAKE THAT!"

Roxas stepped backward, trying to balance himself after taking a hit to the face. He rubbed his new bruise on his chin. Sora laughed at his twin who glared at him.

"You mind, kid!" came a squeaky high pitched voice. "Dontcha be touchin' this an' that like you own the place!"

The others looked around for the mysterious voice when they spotted two chipmunks. There were actually two chipmunks, but only one of them was glaring up at Roxas and tapping one of his hind feet impatiently on the floor, making a fast tap-tap-tap noise. Both chipmunks were wearing matching aprons that bore a symbol of a gear with the King's symbol in the center of it. one had a red nose and the other had a black nose. "That is Chip and his Brother Dale. They are the crew and they maintain the Gummi Ship." said Goofy.

A small cricket made himself known on Sora's Shoulder. "And my name is Jiminy Cricket. I am to be the Chronicle for your travels." said Jiminy. The gang nodded after all they were meeting many new faces. "Now Donald, do you want us to begin working on those new rooms?" asked Chip.

"Yes please Chip. Were going to be picking up a lot of others that might be aiding us on our quest" said Donald as he climbed up the ladder to the cockpit. Chip and Dale saluted as they went to work on the new rooms. Curious, Sora followed Donald and Goofy up the ladder with Kairi. popping out at the top in a dark room that had only one door. so the two headed through the doorway and found themselves in the cockpit. their breath caught as they looked about. As they had seen earlier, the entire cockpit was encased in glass, which let them see the absolutely breathtaking sight of the stars in the night sky. the two had entered from the back, from where they could see pretty much the whole cockpit.

There were three chairs lined up in front, the two on the outside set further backward than one. Donald was seated in that front chair and in front of him was a wheel which must steer the ship, and was currently examining all the switches, gauges, buttons and monitors that were spread across the control board at the front. Goofy was sitting in the chair on the right.

"Whoa" said the others now joining them in the cockpit. Riku noticed there was only three chairs in the cockpit.``Um there's only three chairs."

Donald sighed before he said. "Normally we would be with the King but since we have more passengers. i will have Chip and Dale install more chairs when we reach the first world."

He clicked a button to make several seats appear at the back of the cockpit. The group each took a seat as Sora took a seat next to Kairi who was holding Lucy

Riku with Namine. Max chose to sit next to Goofy on the other chair. "Everything is loaded." said Lea sitting next to Fishlegs.

Donald turned to them before he asked. "Everyone ready to go?"

They all nodded to him before he said "Put on your seat belts on. we're taking off now." Seeing the seat belts did everyone put theirs on as Pluto laid down on his bed. Donald then turned a key as the Engines started to roar to life.

Sora and them could hear Chip bark out orders from the downstairs, even over the sound of the engines. Sora spun around slightly to see if he could catch a glimpse of them at work, but could only manage to hear their voices.

"Engines at full throttle!"

"Aye-aye, sir!"

Donald gripped the handles of the steering wheel and leaned forward, his eyes piercing through the endless beyond. "To the stars!"

The take off was so sudden that Sora had no time to react. All he really knew was that he was suddenly pressed into the cushion of his seat by the sheer force of the movement. His ears began to ring with the sound of the engines roaring, the change of pressure, and the sound of Donald Duck's excited whoops and yells. Kairi's hand immediately grabs his holding on. Xion holds onto Roxas for dear life and Namine holds onto Riku. the ship stopped moving as it had finally left the surface of Traverse Town.

"Take a look outside everyone" said Goofy. The gang looked outside the cockpit to see the sight through the glass was just short of breath taking. True, it was nothing like the sunset on the islands, but the sight of the ocean of stars that twinkle brightly, peeking out from within the endless darkness and the large clusters of stars that looked just like the rolling white clouds was still amazing.

"It's so beautiful," said Namine.

"Your right Namine, it is' ' said Riku, bringing her close to him. Kairi put her head on Sora's shoulder and he held her close to rest of the team were silent enjoying the view as Traverse Town vanished as the Ship moved away from the world and towards it's first destination.
